Borussia Dortmund and Fluminense played to a 0-0 draw in the Club World Cup in rainy conditions before a crowd of just less than half capacity at MetLife Stadium that heavily favored the Brazilian club.

Fluminense will kick off their FIFA Club World Cup campaign and will face German giants Borussia Dortmund in their opening match of the tournament. The Brazilians lost the 2023-24 Club World Cup final in the competition's previous format to Pep Guardiola's Manchester City.

Fluminense held Borussia Dortmund to a 0-0 draw in their Group F Club World Cup opener in New Jersey on Tuesday, as the Brazilian side were left to rue missed chances at MetLife Stadium. Fluminense were firmly in control against the Bundesliga side in the first half but Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel produced a handful of superb saves to frustrate the Brazilian team in front of a crowd mostly in their favour.
